Wes,
Good point about the walls! I've often wondered who lived in the old abandoned houses I run across, what their lives were like, what went wrong that led to the house's abandonment, and so forth. It might be best not to know in most cases.
Oddly, I didn't care about history at all during my high school and college days. Now I find it fascinating (at least in small doses!)
